Kasey Kahne made his move to win the Pocono Cup race with only two laps remaining.

Kasey Kahne showed the rest of the Sprint Cup crowd the way around Pocono International Raceway on Sunday. In the process of winning the race, he led 66 laps on that 2 and a1/2 mile track. It was also his second win of the season as well as his 16th career win. Finishing behind him was Jeff Gordon, Clint Bowyer, Ryan Newman, Dale, Jr. and Brad Keselowski.

"When it was two laps to go, I knew that whoever got the lead would win it. Today we're able to put a full race together," said Kasey following the event. Commenting on top of that, Sam Hornish, Jr., one of SPEED's analysts, revealed, " Kasey went very deep on the inside line, and line selection was critical to win that race."

Jeff Hammond, another SPEED analyst chimed in with, " Kasey also knew that he had to beat Jeff Gordon. Jimmie Johnson should be very concerned about Kasey and Matt Kenseth because both of those guys are capable (of stopping him from winning another championship)." About other drivers, he said, "There's pressure on everyone right now to make The Chase (which is coming up very shortly)."

Jeff Gordon's insight was, " I drove to the bottom but Kasey out drove me." From Kurt Busch came this, " We have to protect the car, and this is what we have to do for the next five weeks. " Ryan Newman said, "We did what we could today (but it wasn't enough)." Junior said, "We are getting better, and we've got more to do. We just have to find it."

Johnson revealed, " I was really focused. That tire problem put us into the wall, and that messed us up bad. But my crew really came through (after he limped into the pits)." Jimmie ended up 28th at the finish. On that incident, Jeff Hammond remarked, "They (JJ's crew) took a bad day and salvaged whatever they could." Jimmie still leads the Cup standings +77 over Clint Bowyer. Third is Carl Edwards, then Kevin Harvick, Dale Earnhardt, Jr., Kyle Busch, Matt Kenseth, Kasey Kahne, Jeff Gordon and Greg Biffle.

SPEED's pitside reporter, Bob Dillner, said, "Kasey's chances for The Chase are good. But Watkins Glen (next weekend) isn't a strong track for Kasey." On JJ, Dillner continued, "He and his team recovered from their setbacks. Also the Hendrick Teams are so good. So much so that even Brad (Keselowski), last year's champ, is feeling the heat of The Chase."

In addition to Johnson's tire problems, Denny Hamlin went out early, and later Danica made a crash exit taking two others with her. She ended up 25th.

Ryan Blaney was the winner of the Camping World Truck race on the under card at Pocono. Following that, there were fireworks between Johnny Sauter and Ty Dillion over some on-track issues. Corey Lajoie won the ARCA race there. Brad Keselowski was able to return to his winning ways at Iowa in the Nationwide race on Saturday, all that after he had to overcome a pit road violation.

At Mid-Ohio, Ryan Hunter Raey won pole while Charlie Kimball won the IZOD Indy car competition on the following day. Kimball was followed over the finish line by Simon Pagenaud and Dario Franchitti. Helio Castroneves ended up sixth which was enough to keep on top of the point standings by +31 points over Scott Dixon. From SPEED's Robin Miller came, "Kimball has been knocking on the door for a win. This time he got it." Kimball quipped, "It was a great day."

Sabastian Ogier ended up winning the Rally of Finland.
